I see. Thanks for the heads up! How much RAM do you have on that Pi 4? On my gaming rig torrenting alone can occasionally eat up 2Gb of RAM, but I haven’t limited anything there (if anything, I’ve increased various limits following the git readme of qBittorrent).
That fan/lid is to die for. Sic setup! Thanks for sharing! :)
Thanks! I’ll look into NFS!
No problem, that’s why I want to attach four 4TB SSDs :D
Thanks! Nah, I use bare bone sshfs to stream media (call me a lunatic) to a separate media player turned Lenovo T480 (which plays 4K just fine with a little indiscernible fan noise).
Well, I did not have to look far:

But I still would love to hear any relevant anecdotes! :)
Thank you so much for sharing your first hand experience! I’ll make sure to point out when they contact me that this can’t keep happening every time there’s a reboot.
Just as a bonus: this lead me to discover why wan/eth1 didn’t show up on the status page. I had to add “device” and “protocol” under “network” in /etc/board.json
Two birds.
Every interface under ../net/ returns 1000. Unfortunately, I don’t have any other devices with which to interface directly with the ONT. But then again, there’s just a gigabit switch between the Pi and the ONT… Anyway, thank you so much for indulging me! I’ve learned a lot! :)
That’s great insight! I think I’ll ask them when they get back to me on the current ticket, why the ONT doesn’t retain the setting after a power cycle (if that indeed is the case). I unfortunately don’t have any legitimate way to interface with the ONT and I really don’t want to get on their bad side by trying to hook something up in a MacGyver fashion. Worst case scenario, they charge me $200 in technician fees if they find out that I accidentally messed something up in the process.
Thanks for the advice on ruling out physical “dirt” factors! I rarely think of those…
Regarding the negotiated speeds, I’m unsure where to find them. Neither the interfaces page, nor the status page nor an ip link shows anything speed related (other than the MTUs but those have always been set to 1500).
Emotions, soups and two upright eternity signs. You’re right. F…
Depending on where the alleged offenses were committed, not decrypting that for which the authorities have a warrant to analyze can be a crime in itself. I’m all for encryption, but without plausible deniability - something that VeraCrypt offers with their hidden volumes feature - encryption might by itself not get you far. Again, depending on the jurisdiction in question. And depending on whether the authorities really want to invest the time and money into “catching” one pirate. And, finally, at least encryption gives you the choice not to decrypt on demand. I just wanted to give encryption some nuance.
HOW COULD I MISS THAT OPPORTUNITY
crying myself to sleep
It had to be ‘toys’ and not, say, ‘loot’? 😳 Sorry, I hear what I wanna hear…
Holy crap it’s like localsend on steroids! Thanks for sharing! https://github.com/localsend/localsend
Not a tool or website per se, but more of a system that I thought of to share loot - mostly single files - with normie friends that neither use a VPN or pirate in any capacity: just pack it in an encrypted archive, encrypt the file headers too, change the filename to something random, upload it to the cloud service of your choice, share the download link and the password to the archive with them and Bob’s your uncle.
DM.
Thanks for sharing! I’m running a Tor bridge on a Pi 5 with DietPi. It’s great! Easy to use, feels really optimized.
10 years?! Wow! What’s that, like a Pi… 3?
